I  am  about  to  recount  to  the  people  of  AIal)auia  and 
to  the  world;  the  principal  events  of  the  war,  connected 
with  the  service  of  the  1 1th  Regiment  Alabama  A^olun- 
teers.  Perhaps  some  one  may  think  I  attempt  a  task 
beyond  my  strength;  but  no  man  so  well  knows  him- 
self as  not  to  attempt  too  much.  Yc|  I  shall  not  have  tu 
reproacli  myself  with  having  omitted  any  commendable 
act;  or  to  record  any  deed  unworthy  of  the  State  ^^x 
Government  they  have  so  failli fully  served.  Wliatever 
I  may  say,  I  aim  to  speak  the  truth;  and  if  I  should  men- 
tion anything  not  conformable  to  the  general  interest  o( 
the  country,  it  will  be  an  error  of  the  head  and  not  of 
ih"©  heart,  and  I  declare  in  advance  that  I  disavow  it.  It 
is  pleasant  to  read  a  good  history,  but  it  is  not  so  easy  fo 
write  one.  A  large  portion  of  this  work  I  am  aware, 
will  disagree  with  impressions  madejnpon  the  minds  of 
the  people  of  Alabama  and  elsewhere^  by  the  stories  of 
unjust  and  prejudiced  minds.  I  a^k  only  one  favor  of 
the  reader,  and  that  is,  question  the  officer^f  the  Regi 
ment,  who  have  a  right  to  know,  before  he  disputes  any 
net  of  the  Regiment  I  herein  relate.

111  i.ieTeuting  this  work  to  the  public,  1  dctui  it  imnecessarj  to  at- 
icmpt  an  explanation  of  the  causes  of  the  war.  Suffice  it  to  say,  tiiat 
»he  thunder  concealed  in  the  cloud  which,  for  over  fifty  years,  dark- 
♦nied  our  political  liorizon,  burst  forth  on  Fort  Sumter,  on  the  11th 
day  of  April,  ISGl.  This  victory  tfi  the  rebels  hastened  preparations 
in  all  the  seceded  States  to  meet  the  Union  army  on  the  border.  AVhcn 
the  first  demand  was  made  for  volunteers,  (so  eager  was  the  South  to 
•<hew  to  the  North  and  to  the  world,  that  they  intended  to  be  free,) 
that  it  was  a  race  to  Montgomerj-,  then  the  Confederate  Capitol,  to  b«

IIJSTOJIT  OF  Ti!K  IHH  AL\BXMi\  KKU' 


On  the  Tth  ol  Augn-t,  l>fJi  ,  lijis  RogiinciU  was  mustered  into  service, 
''J  -^lajor  Calhoun,  C.  S.  A.  For  some  reason  unkno-.vn  to  the  author, 
the  Regiment  did  not  move  immediately  to  the  scat  of  war.  They  re- 
mained in  camp  at  Auburn,  Alabama,  and  were  partially  initiated  into 
the  hardships  of  a  soldier's  life.  On  th»  eth  of  October.  1861,  they 
left  for  Huntsville,  Alabama,  at  which  place  they  arrived  Oct.  Stli. 
They  remained  at  Huntsville  until  November  4th.  The  llcgiment  wa? 
ordered  to  report  at  Richmond,  Vo.  This  mo-vc  was  very  injurious  to 
the  health  of  the  men  composing  the  f^egiment,  a  majority  of  whom 
were  just  recovering  from  measles.  They  arrived  at  Kichmond  Nov. 
.th,  and  camped  on  the  Old  Fair  ground,  west  of  the  cilv.  Here  the 
llegiment  first  received  pay  from  the  Government.  On  the  14th  of 
.."Sovchiber,  the  Regiment  Mas  ordered  to  Evansport,  Va.  They  ar- 
rived there  on  the  17th.  Here  the  men  began  to  experience  in  truth 
the  hardships  of  a  soldier's  life;  having  been  raised  in  Alabama,  and 
the  other  Cotton  States,  the  exposure  which  necessarily  attends  a  sol- 
lier  s  life,  on  the  bleak  shore  of  the  Potomac,  was  more  than  many  of 
them  could  stand.  Hundreds  were  sick,  a  great  many  of  whom  died. 
So  fatal  was  their  sickness,  that  by  the  1st  of  January,  1863,  a  little 
over  a  month,  not  quite  tv.o  hundred  w^re  reported  for  duly.  Colonel 
.fudge,  then  in  command,  asked  to  be  moved;  but  his  petition  was  un- 
noticed by  the  commanding  General,  T.  Holmes.  The  Colonel  then 
applied  and  got  leave  to  visit  Richmond;  and  by  his  own  exertions  and 
mfluence,  had  the  Regiment  ordered  l»y  the  Secretary  of  War  to  Rich- 
mond. The  Regim.ent  arrived  at  Richmond,  .January  3d,  ]^G.3,  an'T 
was  quartered  at  the  Barracks,  west  of  the  city,  known  as  Camj. 
Wmder.  Evc4-y  effort  was  made  by  the  Commanders  of  the  Regiment 
to  restore  the  health  of  the  men.  Here  it  remained  in  garrison  life 
until  the  :27th  of  March,  when  the  enemy  were  threatening  Yorktowu 
from  Fortress  Monroe.  The  health  of  the  Regiment  wos  partially  re- 
stored. We  were  ordered  to  Yorktown;  we  landed  there  on  the  eve- 
nmg  oi  the  27th  of  March.  The  next  morning  we  marched  out  some 
four  miles  west  of  the  town,  and  camped  near  Winn's  Mill.  Nothing 
here  disturbed  the  regular  routine  of  camp  dulv,  save  an  occasiona"} 
rumor  that  the  Yankees  Merc  advancing.  On  the  5th  day  of  .^pril, 
early  in  the  morning,  couriers  Mere  riding  rspidly  in  every  direction, 
from  w-hom  m  e  learned  that  it  Mas  supposed  that  the  enemy  M-ere  ad- 
vancing in  force  on  Dam  No.  1,  situated  about  thrcc-rdurths  of  a  raiJe 
below  our  camp.  The  long  roll  mss  beaten,  the  Regiment  formed 
and  marched  down  to  the  dam  above  named;  we  Mere  draMn  up  in 
line  of  battle,  and  marched  forM'ard  to  the  water's  edge,  and  here  we 
remained  four  days  and  nights.     It  m  as  Mnile  the  Regiment  was  at 

this  place,  that  four  men,  beiongiiig  to  Company  G,  viz:  Allen, 

Allen, Allen,  and Lindsey.  were  posted  across  the  river 

to  M-atch  and  give  intimation  of  the  advance  of  the  enemy;  but  not 
beiQg  properly  instructed,  and  by  their  negilence,  they  were  captured. 
The  morning  of  the  9th  of  April,  we  were  marched  back  to  our  oM 
romp;  the  Mhole  Re^oment  Mas  put  to  M-crk  Huldirg  brea^t-Mork.^  !..

fall  view  of  and  in  range  of  the  enemy's  guns — the  men  v/orked  night 
and  day.  It  was  raining  almost  all  the  time.  At  night  the  enemy 
amused  and  interested  our  men  with  their  rockets;  in  day  time  the^r 
shells  kept  a  continued  whiz,  whiz,  whiz,  over  our  heads.  A  few  men 
however,  were  wounded  by  the  explosion  of  shells,  and  one  or  two 
killed  by  the  sharp-shooters  of  the  enemy.  General  J.  E.  Johnston, 
ut  that  time  in  command  of  the  Army  of  the  Peninsula,  ordered  a  rv- 
fleat;  consequently,  on  the  3d  day  of  May,  we  had  to  leave  our  forti- 
fied position,  which  had  cost  us  so  much  labor,  amidst  danger.  We  took 
the  road  for  Williamsburg,  leaving  all  of  our  tents,  cooking  utensils,  to- 
gether with  a  great  many  rations  we  had  on  hand.  The  road  to 
Williamsburg  Mas  almost  impassable  for  artillery  and  baggage  wagons. 
The  men,  who  were  nearly  exhausted  from  exposure,  want  of  sleep, 
and  having  been  at  work  night  and  day  for  over  two  weeks,  marched 
slowly;  and  many,  who  attempted  to  try  to  save  their  clothing  and 
blankets,  by  packing  them,  were  soon  exhausted;  consequently,  thou- 
sands of  blankets,  overcoats,  shirts,  drawers  and  pants  were  thrown 
away.  We  arrived  at  Williamsburg  in  the  evening;  the  next  day  the 
enemy's  cavalry  were  pursuing  us  closely.  We  marched  through  the 
town  of  Williamsburg,  and  halted  about  two  miles  north  of  the  town. 
Late  in  the  evening,  the  roar  of  musketry,  about  three  miles  below 
Williamsburg,  gave  us  information  that  the  advance  guard  of.  the 
enemy  had  attacked  our  rear.  Soon  we  v.ere  in  line,  and  marched 
back  through  the  town,  and  was  posted  in  a  redoubt,  near  Fort  Ma- 
r^ruder.  Every  man  lay  down  that  night  with  his  musket  by  his  side, 
expecting  that  the  coming  day  would  bring  with  it  a  fight.  Late  at 
night  the  rain  began  falling  in  torrents,  much  to  the  discomfiture  oi 
boys  without  tents.  Every  one  seemed  to  care  only  for  his  gun  and 
ammunition,  as  he  expected  to  have  use  for  it  the  next  day.  At  length 
the  grey  streak  in  the  eastern  horizon  gave  warning  that  day  was  ap- 
proaching. Every  man  was  up  and  ready  for  any  emergency.  The 
clouds  hung  heavily,  casting  a  gloom  over  the  place.  The  redoubt  in 
which  we  were  posted  Avas  dusty  when  we  entered  it  Sunday  night. 
Monday  morning  it  was  ankle  deep  in  mud.  At  ten  minutes  after  S 
o'clock,  the  batteries  of  the  enemy,  on  the  night  and  left,  opened  on 
Fort  Magruder.  Our  artillery  replied  slowly,  as  ammunition  was 
scarce.  This  artillery  duel  lasted  until  near  11  o'clock.  General 
Longstreet  sent  forward  a  Brigade,  in  a  skirt  of  woods,  lying  to  our 
right.  Soon  the  skirmishers  of  the  enemy  and  our  own  were  engaged, 
each  side  falling  back  to  its  reserve.  The  two  armies  advanced.  At 
SO  minutes  after  '2  o'clock,  in  the  evening,  they  opened  fire;  from  this 
time  until  near  11  o'clock  at  night,  the  roar  of  cannon,  and  the  rattle 
of  musketry  was  unceasing.  The  rain  was  pouring  down.  Three 
companies  of  the  14th  Alabama  Regiment  being  posted  in  a  re- 
doubt near  the  one  in  which  the  other  seven  companies  were,  to  sup- 
port a  battery;  they  were  in  command  of  Major  O.  H.  K.  McLemore. 
A  portion  of  Pryor's  Brigade,  to  which  we  belonged,  being  already 
engaged,  the  three  companies,  under  Major  McLemore,  viz:  Com- 
pany B,  Captain  J.  S.  Williamson,  Company  G,  Lieut.  W.  M.  Bell, 
Company  K,  Captain  A.  C.  Wood,  were  ordered  forward.  Fearlessly 
they  rushed  forward  through  the  drenching  rain  and  deep  mud,  to 
succor  their  suffering  comrades,  the  gallant  little  Major,  the  pride 
of  the  Regiment,  leading  them.  Soon  the  rattle  of  musketry  began 
at  the  point  they  entered  the  woods.  At  the  first  fire  from  the  enemy, 
jNTaior  McLemoro's  horse  was  killed  from  under  him.    He  dismounted 


i.om  Ihfc  already  fallen  ;iriiii:i«l,  iud  with  a  smile,  as  if  nothing  had 
happened,  waved  his  sword,  and  ordered  the  men  to  follow  him.  The 
woods  v/crc  very  thick;-  the  enerny  weie  lying  down,  waiting  for  us  to 
u^vance.  What  a  mistaken  ich  a  they  had  of  the  courage  of  our  men. 
The  Major  was  coolly  giving  orders  to  the  boyr^,  when  two  Yankee^ 
took  a  fair  crack  at  him. '  Thf  eagle  eye  of  Corporal  G.  W.  Court- 
ney, in  his  eagerness  for  the  fight,  raised  his  gun  and  shot  one  of 
theni  dead.  The  Major  turned  to  the  gallant  Corporal  and  said,  vcr} 
well,  George,  loud  ai-d  try  another.  Durincr  the  balance  of  the  da}. 
the  three  cof.ipanics,  under  Major  McLemore,  were  engaged  in  that 
desperate  battle,  the  result  of  which  is  too  well  known  to  be  men- 
tioned here.  I  was  sent  on  the  field  late  in  the  day,  to  assist  in  bring- 
ing a  wounded  soldier  off;  and  while  looking  for  the  wounded  and  suf- 
fering soldier,  had  a  chance  of  viewing  the  whole  of  the  battle-ground, 
except  that  part  cu  which  the  two  armies  were  then  engaged.  The 
icene  beggars  description.  Sword»,  guns,  pistols,  bowie-knives, 
cartridge  boxes,  knapsack';,  haversacks  and  blankets  were  scattered 
in  every  direction. 

Captain  J.  S.  Williamson,  of  Comfiany  B,  Goptain  A.  C.  Wood,  of 
Company  K,  and  Lieutenant  W.  M.  Kell,  of  Coffcpany  G,all  behaved 
them>-clvc-.  lionorably.  At  ]  o'clock  at  night,  we  took  the  road  for 
Richmond.  The  cause  of  our  retreat,  after  so  signal  a  victory,  was, 
[  suppose,  that  ammunition  v.as  so  scarce,  that  we  would  be  unable  to 
continiic  the  figtit  the  next  day.  The  roads  were  awful;  the  mud  so 
deep,  and  the  whole  earth  was  so  rotten,  that  1  saw  stout  men,  who 
ventured  to  go  throu^  it,  rather  than  pick  their  way  through  the 
bushes,  get  mired,  and  were  unaljle  to  extricate  themselves  without 
assistance  from  llicir  fellow  soldiers.  Many  of  the  men  were  sick; 
some  entirely  unable  1o  travel.  Many  were  seni  forward  to  the  differ- 
ent Hospitals  at  Petersburg,  where  they  died.  '  Others,  who  were  un- 
able to  keep  up  with  the  Regin)cnt  until  transportation  could  be  fur- 
nished, sank  by  the  road  side,  exhausted.  Every  efibrt  was  made  by 
the  Surgeon  in  charge,  and  om  noble  Quartermaster,  D.  W.  Hinklc, 
to  furnish  transportation  to  the  sick,  who  were  imable  to  travel.  The 
principal  .Surgeon  of  the  Regiment,  J.  B.  Gaston,  was  left  at  Williams- 
burg lo  care  for  the  wounded.  Captain  Fcrrie  Henshaw,  (  f  the  Com- 
missary Departjnent,  and  hi'«  assistant,  J.  S.  p]arle,  were  untiring  in 
their  efforts  to  procure  rations  for  the  men:  but  the  many  thousands 
of  soldiers  who  were  ahead  of  us,  stripped  the  cor.ntry  ofeverything 
eatable.  We  arrived  at  Richmond  on  the  2-2d  day -of  May.  camped 
east  of  the  city,  near  the  Fair  Field  Race  Paths,  and  were  partially 
recovered  from  our  severe  march;  having  been  in  line  of  battle  evcrv 
day  since  we  left  Williamsburg. 

On  the  .31st  day  of  May,  every  man  was  ordered  to  liave  forty  rounds 
of  cartridge.  The  roar  of  cannon  was  alreadv  heard  in  the  direction 
of  Williamsburg.  Lieut.  Colonel  D.  W.  Baine!  at  that  time  was  in  the 
hospital,  and  bearing  that  the  Regiment  was  ordered  to  be  in  readi- 
ness, hurried  to  it.  The  Regiment  being  in  line  of  battle,  marched  to 
the  battle  ground  of  Seven  Pines;  the  weather  was  very  warm.  In 
the  evening  it  began  raining.  We  arrived  at  the  spot  where  the  enemv 
had  first  been  attacked  by  our  troops,  and  driven  from  their  camps', 
leaving  their  tents  standing  with  kettles  full  of  beef,  peas  and  coffee, 
ready  for  eating  and  drinking.  The  mangled  dead  and  wounded  were 
still  lying  on  the  field,  many  of  whom  had  fallen  in  water  sufficientlv 
deep  to  cover  them  while  lying.  1  saw  -everal,  Mhero  the  Hth  Alabama 


charged  on  theii.,  lying  dead,  with  the  bayonets  oi"  Alabamians  and 
jbf  the  enemy  run  through  each  other.  Just  at  dark  we  halted  for  a  few 
minutes,  and  the  Regiment  was  ordered  to  assist  in  removing  these 
noble  men  to  the  nearest  house,  where  they  could  be  attended  by  the 
surgeons.  Late  in  the  night,  the  rain  still  pouring  down,  the  Regi- 
ment was  ordered  to  take  position  in  front.  The  men  sank  down  in 
the  mud  to  rest,  expecting  that  the  coming  day  they  would  be  called 
upon  to  perform  the  severest  task  for  which  they  volunteered.  As  day 
was  dawning  the  next  morning,  the  enemy  opened  fire  on  us  while  our 
men  were  eating  a  snack.  As  quick  as  thought  every  man  was  at  hi^ 
%\xn  and  in  line;  skirmishers  were  sent  forward,  the  pickets  of  the 
enemy  falling  back.  Soon  the  Regiment  was  ordered  forward,  and 
the  battle  which  followed,  though  not  as  hotly  contested  as  others  have 
been  since,  was  suflBcient  to  try  the  nerves  of  the  officers  and  men. 
Lieutenant  G.  .T.  Bankston  and  Corporal  E.  W.  Ray,  of  Company  C, 
privates  W.  Dozier  and  S.  A.  Brewster,  of  Company  D,  and  others 
of  the  Regiment  were  conspicuous  for  their  daring. 

The  enemy  having  been  defeated,  the  heavy  rain  which  had  fallen 
made  the  swamp  of  the  Chickahominy  inaccessible.  Our  forces  fell 
back  to  our  camp  ne2>,r  Richmond— nothing  unusual  transpiring  until 
the  SGth  of  .lune.  Lieut.  Colonel  Baine  made  a  short  speech  to  thf 
companies.of  the  Regiment,  informing  them  of  the  expected  battle,  ask- 
ing them  to  remember  the  State  they  had  the  honor  to  represent.  The 
Regiment  was  formed,  and  taking  the  road  from  Richmond  to  Me- 
chanicsville,  the  morning  of  the  27th  of  June,  we  were  in  line  of  bat- 
tle near  the  battle  ground  of  Gaines'  Mill — Lieutenant  Colonel  Baine 
commanding.  Major  A.  C.  Wood,  formerly  Captain  of  Company  K, 
was  also  present.  The  firing  had  already  began  in  front.  The  14t]» 
Alabama  was  ordered  forward  to  support  the  14th  Louisiana  in  i« 
charge  on  the  strong  position  of  the  enemy,  for  some  reason  unknown 
to  the  author,  the  charge  was  not  made.  We  were  suffered  to  lie  in 
an  open  field,  exposed  to  the  murderous  fire  of  the  enemy,  and  were 
not  suffered  to  fire  a  gim.  We  lost  several  gallant  men,  and  several 
wounded.  A  deep  ditch  was  in  front;  the  Louisianians  succeeded  in 
■throwing  a  bridge  across  it,  and  began  crossing;  the  enemy  ceased 
firing  and  began  retreating;  our  men  push  forward;  a  pursuit  of  some 
six  miles,  and  we  again  came  upon  the  pickets  of  the  enemy.  Lieut. 
J.  T.  Greenwood,  of  Company  D,  was  in  command  of  a  party  of  skir- 
mishers from  our  Regiment;  he  succeeded  in  driving  their  pickets  back 
lo  their  reserve.  Our  wh.ole  Brigade,  which  was  composed  of  the  14th 
Alabama,  14ih  Louisiana,  3d  Virginia,  and  St.' Paul's  Battalion,  wo;^ 
thrown  fonvard  in  an  open  field,  in  order,  I  suppose,  to  draw  their 
forces  out;  but  instead  of  drawing  out  their  forces,  we  only  drew  the 
fire  from  their  batteries;  one  shell  falling  in  Company  A,  killing  one  or 
two,  and  wounding  several.  We  fell  "back  from  this  position  some 
twenty  yards,  and  sent  forward  another  party  of  skirmishers.  A  few 
minutes  after  2  o'clock,  we  received  orders  from  Gen'l  R.  A.  Pryor, 
to  advance.  We  advanced  some  three-fourths  of  a  mile,  and  halted 
for  a  moment — being  near  the  enemy.  A  few  hasty  orders  were  given 
to  the  men,  when  the  command  was  given  to  forward,  and  in  an  advance 
of  a  hundred  yards  we  were  in  full  view  and. range  of  the  enemy's  mus- 
ketry. They  opened  fire  on  us  with  terrible  effect;  but  still  our  col- 
umns advanced  to  within  fifty  yards  of  their  nearest  b^;^stwork;  we 
'halted  for  a  moment,  and  a  few  rounds  from  our  boys  dislodged  them. 
Our  men  rushed  forward  veiling,  which,  with  the  rattle  of  musketry,

iechoe«i  among  ttit  hill-;  loi*  miles  around;  tliey  attempted  to  retreat  in 
order,  but  wc  pressed  them  too  closely.  Many  instances  of  dafing 
might  here  be  nierttioned.  General  Ptyor  was  everywhere  where'the 
•firing  Was  hottest. 

Lieutenant  Colonel  Baine's  daring  excelled  that  of  any  man  I  crer 
baW,  amidst  the  hail-storm  of  bullets.  He  was  cool,  and  apparently 
ti3  self-possessed  as  if  he  was  in'  his  tent  a«  osunp.  The  company 
officers  did  their  duty  nobly;  among  whom  1  noticed,  wasLicut.  N. 
JVI.  Smith  aiid  C.  M.  Snced,  of  Company  A;  Company  F,  I.ieut.  J. 
C.  Strickland;  of  Company  D,  Lieut.  .T.  T.  Greonwood— he  had  been 
conspicious  for  his  daring  throughout  the  day,  and  fell  mortally 
woundetl  soon  afterwards;  of  Company  L  Captain  J.  T.  Bell,  Lieut. 
JG.Tolk,  and  Lieut.  .T.  P.  Shaffer — Captain  Bell  fell  mortallv  woundeu 
soon  afterwards,  and  expired  on  the  field:  of  Company  C,  Lieut,  now 
Captain  M.  L.  Barber;  of  Company  IL  l-ieut.  now  Captain  W.  E. 
Q'BFien  and  Lieut.  C.  IL  Lamberth;  of  E.  Captain  W.  F.  Dunson 
and  Lieut.  J.  T.  McLain;  of  K,  Captain  fi.  W.  Taylor;  of  G,Capt. 
K.  A.  McCord,  and  Lieut.  G.  T.  Verdrey. 

"l^Many  of  the  officers  of  the  Regiment  were  si<  k.  Lieut,  now  Cap;. 
.1.  A.  Terrell,  of  Company  G,  not  having  recovered  from  hK  wound** 
received  at  Williamsburg.  Among  the  non-commissioned  officers  anii 
privates,  deeds  of  daring  were  so  numerous,  that  I  may  say  the  whole 
llegiment  did  its  duty.  Wc  pressed  them  closely  for  threc-fourtlis 
of  a  mile.  Our  men  were  falling  fast  from  the  grape  and  canister 
they  were  poiiring  Into  us  at  every  step.  Our  men  baited  for  a  mo- 
ment; a  short  consultation  among  the  remnant  of  oflficei-!"  and  private^, 
composing  our  Brigade:  they  quickly  decided  to  take  that  battery — 
Alabamians,  Virginians  and  C^uisianians.  Many  of  the  Louisianian-, 
who  were  not  so  fleet  as  the  Alabamians  and  Virginians,  threw  down 
their  guns  and  empty  carfridge-boxes,  and  rushed  forv/ard  with  their 
Imyotiets  in  hand.  Soon  the  artillerists  left  their  guns,  When  Corp '1 
•Tamtes  Giles,  color  guard,  and  at  this  time  bearing  the  colors,  planted 
fhem  on  the  guns  in  the  battery.  The  shouts  of  our  boys  echoed  among 
the  hills  for  miles  around.  The  battle  is  ended  for  the  day;  night, 
eoming  on,  the  Colonel  could  find  only  twelve  men  of  his  Regiment: 
the  balance  of  the  men  lay  on  the  battle  field  all  nigh't.  Early  nex': 
morning  they  were  rallying  around  their  commander,  and  t'hougn 
much  fatigued  by  the  day '^  labor  previous,  yet  ready  to  obey  any  coL> 
mand  that  was  given.  By  8  o'clock  in  the  morning,  ^ley  were  agair 
on  the  battle  field.  Late  in  the  day  our  Generals  discovered  that  n 
was  the  intention  of  the  enemy  to  retreat  to  James  river,  and  tafre 
ihelter  Under  their  gun  boats. 

On  Sunday  morning,  Pryor's  Brigade,  With  the  balance  of  Loft^- 
street's  Division,  were  ordered  to  assist  General  Huger  in  preventing 
their  escape;  but  the  exhausted  condition  of  Longstreet's  troops,  and 
the  distance  they  had  to  march,  was  the  reason  why  they  did  not  ar- 
rive in  time.  The  reason  why  General  Huger  did  not  prevent  it,  has 
been  told  by  those  who  know  more  about  it  than  I  do.  Monday  morn- 
ing found  the  enemy  strongly  posted  on  Frazier's  Farm,  The  enemy 
ha:d  chosen  this  position  to  check  the  pursuing  rebels.  The  battle 
ground  was  a  plain,  covered  with  pine  bushes.  General  Longst reel 
being  called  oft\  the  command  of  his  division  fell  upon  General  A.  P. 
riill.  The  enemy  had  a  battery  in  position  on  our  right,  -fituated  on  z 
slightly  elevated  position.  Already  tlie  roar  of  «iusketry  and  cannor 
was  deafening  in  front.     Several  brigades  had  tricf^  tc 'take  the  bat- 


10 


tery  on  our  right.  General  Fryor  as:ked  Coloiici  Buine  il"  2iis  Reg'- 
ment  could  take  that  battery.  The  gallant  Colonel  replied:  *•  My  boys 
will  take  it  if  I  tell  them."  .:8oon  the  Regiment  was  called  on  to  ex- 
ecute the  command.  After  we  crossed  a  swamp,  lying  about  half 
a  mile  i)i  front  of  the  battery,  and  formed  a  line,  the  brave  Col- 
onel ordered  a  charge.  Every  man  rushed  forward,  yelling;  nor  did 
they  halt  until  the  battery  was  but  a  few  yards  distant,  when  the  Colonel 
fell  mortally  wounded,  and  expired  almost  immediately  on  the  field. 
Major  A.  C.  Wood  was  severely  wounded;  Lieuts.  N.  M.  Smith  and 
C  M.  Sneed  were  killed  of  Company  A;  Lieut.  J.  C.  Strickland,  of 
Company  F,  v/ounded;  of  Company  D,  Serg't  A.  II.  McCarny,  now 
iid  Lieutenant  commanding,  was  wounded;  Lieut.  J.  E.  Mayo  wa*^ 
killed,  of  C;  Lieut,  now  Captain  M.  L,  Barber,  of  C,  wounded;  of  E, 
Captain  H.  F.  Dunson  was  wounded;  of  K,  Captain  G.  W.  Taylor 
was  wounded.  But  two  Captains  of  the  Regiment  had  escaped,  viz: 
Capt.  J.  S.  Williamson,  of  Co.  B,  and  Capt.  R.  A.  McCord,  of  Co.  G. 
Some  one  ordered  a  retreat,  and  the  men  not  knowing  from  whom  the 
command  came,  fell  back  reluctantly,  denying  every  inch  of  ground. 
Fearless  Adjutant  L.  Pinkard  succeeded  in  rallying  the  scattered  regi- 
ment, v/hich,  comiiKinded  by  Captain  J.  S.  Williamson,  of  Company 
B,  assisted  by  Captam  R,  A.  McCord,  of  Co.  G,  made  another  charge*. 
Success  crowned  their  elfort  this  time,  though  the  brave  old  Captain 
fell  dead  in  the  charge. 

Captain  McCord  and  the.Adjutant  held  the  battery  with  only  a  hand- 
ful of  men.  They  were  soon  reinforced  by  another  brigade.  Night 
put  an  end  to  the  contest.  The  regiment  did  not  participate  in  the 
battle  of  Tuesday,  but  was  near  the  battle  ground.  It  remained 
on  duty  near  the  battle  ground  until  the  loth  of  July,  when  il  was 
ordered  back  to  its  old  camp,  near  Richmond,  where  it  remained 
until  the  11th  of  August.  It  was  ordered  to  Gordonsville;  from  there 
it  was  ordered  forward — the  enemy  being  in  front.  A  march  of  three 
days,  and  we  reached  the  Rapidan  river,  at  Raccoon  ford.  From  this 
time  until  the  30th  of  August,  after  marching  and  counter-marching 
on  half  rations,  undergoing  hardships  and  privations  unheard  of  before 
in  the  annals  o^  war,  we  reached  the  classic  plains  of  Manassas.. 
Commanded  by  Colonel  A.C.  Wood,  formerly  Major,  the  Regiment 
was  engaged  in  another  severe  battle.  Corp'l  E.  W.  Ray,  of  Co.  C, 
was  again  conspicuous  for  his  daring.  He  bore  the  colors  until  se- 
verely wounded,  and  was  borne  from  the  field.  As  he  fell,  private  J. 
A.  Neil,  of  Company  I,  took  the  colors,  and  was  gallantly  advancing, 
when  he  fell  severely  wounded.  Hardly  had  the  colors  fell,  when  pri- 
vate J.  M.  Finley,  of  Company  C,  unfurled  the  flag  again  to  the  breeze, 
and  gallantly  bore  them  until  the  battle  was  ended.  He  was  permittee 
by  the  Colonel  to  carry  them  afterwards. 

On  the  1st  day  of  September,  the  well  known  song  of  Maryland. 
My  Maryland,  greeted  the  ear  at  every  camp.  Soon  the  road  from 
Manassas  to  Leesburg  was  swarming  with  rebel  soldiers. 

On  the  5th  of  September,  the  Regiment  crossed  the  Potomac,  under 
the  following  commanders:  2d  Corporal  T.  C.  Meadow,  commanding 
Co.  A;  Co.  B,  Captain  S.  G.  Perry;  Company  C,  Lieutenant  T.  A. 
Strahan;  Company  D,  2d  Corporal  W.  T.  Daniel;  Company  E,  Lieut. 
•J.  T.  McLain;  Company  F,  Lieut.  J.  S.  McLane;  Company  G,  Capt. 
R.  A.  McCord;  Company  H,  Lieut.  C.  H.  Lamberth;  Company  I. 
Serg't  J.  L.  Haynes;  Company  K,  Serg't  W.  S.  Hooper.  We  reachec 
Frederick,  Maryland,  on  the  7th.     We  remained  there  three  day*,  and 


11 


destroyed  the  custly  railroad  brKlge,  uear  that  city,  and  taking  the 
road  for  Harper's  Ferry,  on  the  UUh,  we  arrived  there  on  the  13th, 
hungry  and  tired.  Often  we  lay  all  day  in  open  fields,  waiting  the  ap- 
proach of  the  enemy.  The  weather  was  excessively  warm.  On  the 
15th  of  September,  the  enemy  surrendered  11,500  strong  to  General 
Stonewall  .Tackson.  We  recrossed  tlie  Potomac  again  into  A'irginia, 
on  the  morning  of  tlio  16th,  and  marched  towards  Sheppardstown, 
Va.  We  marclied  all  day  and  all  night,  and  reached  Sheppardstown 
early  the  next  morniilg,  and  recrossed  the  Potomac  again  into  Mary- 
land. A  march  of  three  miles,  and  we  were  in  front  of  the  enemy  at 
Antietam,  near  the  village  of  Sharpsburg. 

The  road  from  Harper's  Ferrj  through  Sheppardstown,  on  to  the 
battle  ground  of  Antietam,  was  crowded  with  sick  and  straggling  sol- 
diers. Hundreds,  yes,  thousands  Mere  bare-footed;  many  were  ex- 
hausted from  their  many  hasty  marches;  and  I  might  here  state  that 
two-thirds  of  the  subsistence  our  men  got  in  iMaryland,  was  roasting- 
ears.  The  scene, after  we  crossed  the  river,  and  on  the  field  of  An- 
tietam, is  difficult  f6  desorilte.  It  was  often  difficult  to  tell  which  wa« 
the  worst  off,  many  of  the  broken  down  soldiers,  or  the  wounded. 
The  name  of  stragglers  is  a  scandal  to  these  men;  for  these  noble  men, 
when  they  arrived,  went  forward  in  mass  almost  without  a  commander, 
and  drove  tlie  enemy  before  them.  I  saw  one  of  thes^  regiments,  in 
which  I  think  every  State  in  the  Confederacy  was  represented.  Be- 
tore  we  reached  the  battle_  field,  the  groans  of'the  wounded  that  passed 
us  in  ambulances,  and  the  roar  of  c'annon  and  the  rattle  of  musketry 
ahead,  for  the  first  time  informed  many  of  the  men  that  we  were  oli 
the  eve  of  another  battle.  A  march  of  a  mile  forward,  and  we  halted 
to  drop  our  knapsacks.  Tlic  elements  seemed  crowded  with  shell,  as 
they  passed  harmlessly  over  our  heads,  with  now  and  then  a  stray  ball 
from  the  long  range  rifles  of  the  enemy.  We  descended  the  hill  in 
front;  and  as  v.  e  reached  the  top  of  the  "hill  in  front,  the  musketry  of 
the  enemy  seemed  as  if  it  had  just  began.  From  this  time  until  night 
every  thing  in  front  was  obscured  from  view  by  the  dense  smoke;  and 
the  sound  that  greeted  the  ear  can't  be  compared  to  anything  but  a 
--evere  hail  storm,  accompanied  by  thunder  and  lightning.  Often  when 
our  boys  were  ready,  and  only  v.'aiting  the  smoke  to  clear  away,  the 
vivid  flash  from  the  cannon  of  the  enemy  informed  our  men  of  the 
whereabouts  of  the  enemy.  A  volley  of  muf^ketry  followed,  again 
obscuring  everything  from'  view — for  a  moment  everything  seemed  to 
be  in  confusion.  Colonel  A.  C.  Wood  being  in  command  of  Prj'or's 
Brigade;  Captain  G.  W.  Taylor,  of  C-ornpany  K,  was  in  command  of 
the  Ivcgiment.  He  ordered  a  charge:  our  weary  and  almost  exhausted 
boys  rushed  forward,  but  the  overwhelming  forces  of  the  enemy  drove 
our  men  back.  SloAvly  and  reluctantly  we  retreated,  denying  every 
inch  of  ground:  night  coming  on  the  firing  gradually  ceased,  and  our 
men,  exhausted,  sank  down  to  rest  where  thev  stood,  every  one  ex- 
pecting that  the  coming  day  would  bring  with  it  another  fight. 

Early  tlie  next  morning*  our  pickets  and  those  of  the  enemy  began 
firing;. but  both  sides  seemed  to  have  done  enough  already.  Later  in 
the  day,  a  flag  of  truce  was  seen  approaching  our  lines.  1  never  have 
been  able  to  get  a  correct  verbage  of  their  message— suflfice  it  to  say, 
no  terms  were  agreed  on.  Both  sides  were  in  line  of  battle,  and  this 
time  was  employed  by  our  litter-bearers  in  bringing  in  the  wounded 
that  had  fallen  in  exposed  places.  Night  coming  on.  our  men,  hungry 
«nd  weary  for  want  of  sleep,  sank  dov.n  to  rest  where  thfev  had  lain 
the  rj'ght  previm:s;  hut  about  10  o'clock  at  nicrht,  wo  received  order=

the  Virginia  «ide  of  the  Potorifac.  Early  on  the  mornipg  of  the  19th, 
we  were  drawiv  up  in  line  of  battle  on  the  Virginia  side  of  the  Foto- 
niac.  We  remained  here  until  late  in  tlie  evening,  when  we.  received 
orders  to  fall  back  to  Martinsburg,  Va.  We  marched  all  night  and 
camped  next  morning  only  six  miles  from  Sheppardstov/n;  the  road 
"though  tiiTn,  was  very  rough.  We  remained  here  all  day.  and  at  oight 
look  up  the  march  again;  the  night  was  very  dark,  and  it  appeared  to 
me  that  all  the  rocks  in  that  county  might  have  been  on  the  road  wc 
traveled  over  that  night.  We  camped  near  Martinsburg  the  mornin^i 
of  the  21st  of  September.  We  remained  here  several  days,  while  the 
Generals  were  employed  in  reorganizing  the  army.  'While  here,  Ad- 
jutant L.  Pinkard  was  appointed  Lieut.  Colonel. 

On  the  27th  we  again  took  the  road  for  Winchester;  a»distance  of" 
thirty  miles.  We  marched  twenty-seven  miles,  and  halted  for  the 
night;  early  the  next  morning  we  moved  to  a  more  suitable  campinji 
ground.  It  was  while  we  were  encamped  at  this  place  that  tJie  snaall 
pox  broke  out  in  our  regiment;  but  the  men  who  fell  victims  to  this. 
loathsome  disease,  were  sent  ofl'  as  soon  as  discovered.  We  left  thj^ 
camp,  September  30th;  marched  through  Winci)ester,t.ook  the  road  to 
Front  Royal,  marched  f27  miles,  and  halted  for  the  nigut.  Early  in 
the  morning  of  1st  of  November,  cold,  and  many  of  the  men  bare- 
footed, we  took  the  road  for  Culpeper  C.  H.,  waded  both  branches  of 
the  Shenandoah,  passed  through  Front  Royal,  Flint  Hill  and  Gaines' 
Cross  Roads,  v/aded  both  branches  of  the  Rappahannock,  and  arrived 
at  Culpeper  C.  H.  Nov.  3d;  camped  north  of  the  C  H.  one  mile;  Nov, 
7th  the  first  snow  of  the  season  fell.  This  was  a  sleepless  night  to  our 
tentless  brigade;  Ave  left  this  camp  on  the  19th  of  Nov.,  and  arrived  at 
Fredericksburg  the  23d;  camped  west  of  the  town  tliree  miles,  and 
north  of  the  plank  road  leading  to  Gordonsville  one  mile. 

On  the  5th  of  December  it  snowed  to  the  depth  of  six  or  sevejt 
inches.  About  5  o'clock  in  the  morning  of  the  11th  of  December,  1 
was  avi^akened  by  the  firing  of  cannon.  Soon  the  oiider  came  for  the 
men  to  be  in  readiness.  The  grey  streak  in  the  eastern  horizoH  in- 
formed us  that  day  was  breaking.  *^The  enemy  had  began  shelling  the 
city  of  Fredericksburg.  The  scene  from  the  hill  near  our  camp  wa.n 
beautiful,  A  quotation  from  Campbell,  in  his  description  of  the  battle, 
of  W^arsaw,  best  describes  it. 

/.Earth  shook,  red  meteors  flashed  aloag  the  sky," 

the  light  of  which  tinged  the  elements  with  a  bright- red  color.  Our 
Regiment  was  not  engaged  in  the  bloody  battle  at  this  place,  but«va- 
in  position  on  the  extreme  left  of  our  army.  Capt.  Ferrie  Henshaw, 
of  the  Commissary  Department,  having  resigned  on  the  23d  of  Dec, 
left  the  Regiment.  He  had  filled  his  position  with  credit  to  him- 
self, and  gave  general  satisfaction  to  the  entire  Regiment.  His  loss 
was  keenly  felt.  His  position  is  now  filled  by  Capt.  H.  F.  Dunson,  of 
Companv  E.  I  have  thus  given  the  j^rincipal  events  connected  with 
the  service  of  the  14th  Alabama  Regiment  to  this  time,  and  which  1 
Slope  will  not  be  uninteresting  to  those  w^ho  read  it.

A-PPENDIX. 


Since  the  foregoing  history  of  the  14th  Alabama  Regiment  was  in 
print,  the  great  battles  about  Chancellorsville  were  fought,  and  we  ap- 
pend a  list  of  the  casualties  of  the  14th  Alabama  Pcegiment,  which  hap- 
pened on  that  occasion,  together  with  a  brief  account  ot  our  move- 
ments previous  to  the  commencement  of  the  battles. 

We  remained  in  camp  near  the  residence  of  Doctor  Taylor  until 
about  the  first  of  April.  We  moved  camp  up  the  river,  where  wc 
Would  be  more  convenienl  to  our  defences  at  Bank's  Ford,  but  still 
keeping  up  our  same  old  picket  line.  The  winter  had  been  very  se- 
vere and  wood  scarce,  and  the  men  were  proud  to  get  into  so  dense  a 
forest  of  oaks  once  more  to  camp.  Nothing  transpired  to  disturb  the 
usual  routine  of  camp  duties  until  the  28th  of  April;  when  heavy  can- 
nonading was  heard  up  the  river.  Wc  soon  received  the  intelligence  that 
the  enemy  were  crossing  at  United  States  Ford,  ajftd  points  above  and 
below.  Early  in  the  morning  of  the  29th,  we  were  called  into  line» 
and  marched  to  our  breast-works  near  Bank's  Ford.  We  remained 
there  but  a  short  time,  when  we  received  orders  to  repair  to  the  scene 
of  action,  about  one  a  half  miles  west  of  the  fork  of  the  Plank  and 
Turnpike  roads  leading  to  Gordonsville.  We  were  ordered  to  take  a 
position  on  the  extreme  right  of  our  lines,  next  to  the  river:  if  ho 
enemy  showed  himself  in  front,  to  scour  the  woods  for  him.  Scouts 
were  thrown  out  on  each  side;  the  main  portion  of  our  Brigade  marched 
for  some  distance  without  interruption  and  halted  for  the  scoOt's  re- 
port. The  scouts  on  out  right  captured  three  of  the  straggling  enemy 
near- Decker  heights,  night  coming  on — it  was  very  dark.  We  stacked 
:\rms  on  the  side  of  the  road  and  lay  down  to  sleep;  but  wc  vere  not 
allowed  to  repose  long.  We  received  orders  to  move  to  a  position  be- 
tween the  Plank  road  and  Turnpike  road,  and  near  Wilderness  creek. 
We  had  just  stacked  our  arms  and  laid  down,  hoping  that  we  would 
be  allowed  to  rest  until  morning,  when  we  received  orders  to  march 
back  to  Bank's  Ford.  We  had  already  marched  nearly  twelve  miles, 
and  most  of  that  in  double-quick;  however,  the  men  promptly  obeyed 
the  order.  We  marched  back  to  the  Ford  before  mentioned,  arriving 
there  just  before  the  dawn  of  day.  In  a  few  minutes  every  man  was 
asleep  and  quiet,  save  some  straggling  soldier,  inquiring  for  his  com- 
pany. The  next  day  we  remained  quiet  in  comparison  with  what  was 
going  on  up  the  river.  At  night  wc  occupied  the  same  position  that 
we  did  the  night  previous.  The  roar  of  cannon  up  the  river  could  be 
distinctly  heard  all  night.  Early  the  next  morning  we  were  marched 
down  near  Fredericksburg.  We  soon  received  the  news  that  the  eneraj 
were  crossing  at  the  city,  and  that  General  Barksdale,  with  his  Mis- 
sfssippians,  who  had  been  left  to  hold  the  city,  wanted  reinforcement!^. 
The  day  (Sunday)  was  very  warm;  however,  we  started  in  double- 
quick,  but  we  were  too  late.  The  enemy  had  discovered  that  the 
place  was  defended  but  by  a  small  force,  and  they  succeeded  in  flank- 
ing the  position,  and  drove  the  gallant  Mississippians  from  their  breast- 
works.    The  slaughter  on  both  sides  was  awful. 

General  Wilcox  acting  in  concert  with  General  Barksdale,  threw 


44 

out  skirmishers,  and  began  falling  back.  We  retreated  to  Salem 
Church,  on  the  Plank  road,  2|  or  3  miles  from  the  city,  formed  a  lin« 
determined  to  give  him  battle.  .  General  Lee  having  been  notified  of 
our  condition,  sent  portions  of  McLaw's  and  Anderson's  Divisions  to 
our  support.  We  had  hardly  formed  the  line  of  battle  before  the 
troops  of  McLaws  began  to  arrive.  Wilcox's  Brigade  composed  of 
the  8th,  9th,  10th,  11th  and  14th  Alabama  Regiments  was  across  the 
Plank  Road  at  right  angles.  The  11th  and  14th  Alabama  Regiments 
were  posted  on  the  side  of  the  road  next  to  the  river,  the  balance  of 
the  Brigade  on  the  opposite  side  of  the  road.  Our  men  had  no  pro- 
tection save  that  afforded  by  a  brush  fence.  We  were  not  allowed  to 
remain  idle  long,  the  enemy  advanced  cheering  and  shouting,  our  boys 
were  lying  quietly  waiting  for  them  to  advance,  at  length  the  enemy 
come  in  sight ;  our  boys  still  lying  impatiently  waiting  for  orders  to 
charge,  and  whether  the  osder  was  ever  given  or  not,  I  am  not  ableto 
say,  almost  before  I  knew  it,  several  officers,  amoug  whom,  1  noticed 
were  Lieut.  W.  Dozier,  of  Company  D.,  as  he  hallooed  out,  *'  come 
on  boys,  we'll  get  our  blankets  back,"  officers  and  men  went  over  the 
brush  fence,  with  a  shout  that  echoed  for  miles  along  the  Rappahan- 
nock, rushed  upon  the  insolent  foe,  who  at  first  retreated  slowly  and 
flullenly,  but  our  boys  pressed  them  closely,  and  jfehey  soon  struck  a  trot 
to  keep  out  of  reach  of  our  bayonets.  We  drove  this  line  of  the 
enemy's  back  upon  their  reserve  until  we  were  ordered  to  fall  back. 
We  fell  back  in  good  order  to  our  former  position.  This  is  what  may 
be  termed  an  open  field  fight,  as  no  breastworks  -^ ere  on  either  side. 
The  battle  ground  is  an  open  field.  In  this  short  fight  we  lost  11  men 
killed  dead  on  the  field  ;  two  of  whom  were  promising  young  officers y 
viz  :  Second  Lieutenant  H.  M.  Cox,  of  Company  K.,  and  Second  Ju- 
nior Lieutenant  M.  L.  Bankston,  of  Company  C;  113  officers  and 
men  wounded,  and  36  officers  and  men  missing.  Night  coming 'on,  a 
heavy  skirmishing  party  was  thrown  forward,  our  main  line  resting 
behind  the  brush  they  held  previous  to  the  charge.  The  men  that 
night,  almost  without  a  spade  or  pick,  threw  up  with  tin  plates  and  their 
hands  a  breastwork  sufficient  to  protect  them  from  musketry.  The 
manner  in  which  they  worked  was,  that  several  men  in  every  com- 
pany would  loosen  the  earth  with  their  bayonets,  the  balance  of  the 
men  throwing  out  the  dirt  with  tin  plates  and  hands.  On  Wednesday 
our  Brigade  returned  to  tlie  camp  it  occupied  before  the  battle.
